Thailand landscape

 

These programmes are open to individuals and groups of people interested in volunteering in Thailand and in learning more about the culture of this diverse and beautiful country.

Safer Travel Partnership

EIL have joined the Foreign and Commonwealth Office's 'Know Before You Go' Campaign Partnership.

Safer Travel

Anyone with a relative, friend, colleague or participant travelling overseas will live in fear of the phone call telling them ‘we have a problem…’ Whether it is reporting illness, injury, accident, crisis or act of God, nobody wants to receive that message. There is a short video on the Sara’s Wish Foundation website which tells stories of just some of the accidents that can happen overseas. Although this website and video are American and based on American Study Abroad students the message is still just as strong for anyone travelling in foreign countries.

The better prepared you can be when travelling abroad; the less likely you are to encounter problems.

Group Travel to Tunisia

EIL UK are developing an Arts and Crafts Programme in Tunisia in and around Carthage.

There will be opportunity to learn about traditional Andalucia-style ceramics and Arabic calligraphy in a traditional workshop situated in the heart of the Tunis medina.

Participants will learn some modern standard Arabic and take part in voluntary work.

This programme will last for 2 weeks and will take place in August 2010.

There are a maximum of 20 places available.

For more information about this exciting programme contact EIL.

Welcome

Welcome to EIL UK’s new website.

Though it’s still a little rough around the edges and there’s plenty more to be added over time we hope you’ll find it a useful way to learn about our programmes.

We’re also beginning to reach out and offer ways in which you can get involed online with EIL UK: be it writing a blog on this website while you’re volunteering in Ecuador, or helping to raise awareness of development education issues on the EIL UK Facebook page.

If you have any comments, or run into any problems with the website please let us know.
